A murder inquiry is under way after two women's bodies were found inside a freezer at a flat in east London.The women have not been formally identified and post-mortem examinations of their bodies have not yet taken place.
Appealing for witness, the Met Police confirmed no arrests have been made, following the discovery on Friday.Scenes of crime officers in protective clothing have also been inside the building, with a downstairs window covered.I've managed to get inside an adjacent block next door to the flats that have been taped off by police.It's a quiet residential area in east London - but one person has told me they are petrified to live here.
So far in 2019, more than 40 murder investigations have been launched in London by the Metropolitan and British Transport police forces. Det Ch Supt Richard Tucker said:"The launch of any murder investigation is naturally of concern to the local community.
